C.C. Deville - Life Changes


C. C. DeVille. Lead guitar for Poison. Iconic guitar player. Flamboyant to the extreme. User of mass amounts of hair spray. Follower of Christ. That's right............ you heard correctly. In a day when it seems so many in the church are pointing their fingers at people and making judgements and proclaiming others to be unfit, Christ himself appears in a place where most "traditional" Christians wouldn't be found dead.

But then again, Jesus always went against the flow of the religious people. Imagine the surprise when Pete Wilson, the pastor at Cross Point Church in Nashville, TN got a call from C.C. DeVille asking for advice and inviting him to a Poison concert. You see, C.C. DeVille has proclaimed his faith in Christ. Visit Pete Wilson's blog at WithoutWax.TV to read this incredible story and watch the video.

To you C.C. DeVille - God bless you. Your courage to proclaim your faith is and inspiration.
To you Pete Wilson - Good for you in letting yourself be available to C.C. DeVille and not automatically condemning him for he is or was.
To you Jesus Christ - Your grace is never ending and your love unimaginable.

Congrats to C.C. - May God richly bless you and those around you.

Crazy Crazy Crazy

Is this guy out of his freakin' mind or what? You can tell how high he is by the hight of the street light on the bottom left. Taken at an extreme sports event coupled with a Luis Palau crusade in Nashville TN last summer. Click on Luis Palau's link and I think you will be suprised............not your standard evangelistic crusade.

Happy Independence Day America

Happy Independence Day to the greatest country on Earth.

Two New Blogs From Japan Added To My Favorites

I have added two new blogs to my list of favorites. Both blogs come out of Japan and both give a great view of life in that wonderful country.

Neil Duckett is an Australian living in Japan giving blogging about life as a Gaijin in Japan. Neil provides us with a great view of life in a country other than our native one with all the differences one can encounter.

I Rub Your Brog is a blog by a 38 year old male (nationality unknown) who also provides insight into life in Japan. Here is what he says in his user profile: "I Rub Your Brog is a visual narrative of life and the music scene in and around Tokyo.."

Take some time to check in on these two periodically. They make for a great read and before you know it an hour will have gone by.
